This based off their stated policies, advocacy, actions and behavior.
-
they undermine their own message by pushing collectivism. They perpetuate the same collective guilt which minimizes the individual, creates a dehumanizing sense of the "other." How they advocate white guilt or white privilige is just as racist as a cop assigning guilt to a blackman because of their skin color. This creeps into discussions of systematic racism and undermines their argument and increases racial division.
-
they place themselves as the arbiters of who is and is not racist through their branding and behavior. If you don't agree with all their positions and policies, you must clearly not think black lives matter. That is wrong, insulting, arrogant, and creates divisions.
-
The discussions of policy and behavior treats race as a tribal block. Particularly in how they discuss policy and interests as if they get to speak for all blacks about all whites. This undermines the message that we are more than the color of our skin and perpetuates the wrong belief that skin color determines characteristics and beliefs. Not all black people or white people or hispanics have to have the same opinions based on their race. An example is the discussion of black cops where it comes down to their profession being traitorous to their race. Maybe they wanted to make their community safer and the police force more diverse? On one hand we ask for diversity, but then the rhetoric punishes it by calling people horribly racist names. And dont get me started on how black republicans are treated.
-
demanding people kneel to show solidarity is offensive. Kneeling is a sign of submission, not solidarity. Ask people to march with you, not kneel to you.
-
politics above outcome. BLM rails against the criminalization and mass incarceration which impacts the black community, but chants against the guy who passed criminal justice reform, and is likely to support the guy who restored citizenship to Robert e. Lee and authored the 1994 crime bill. Why has BLM not marched to take down the governor who wore a hood/or blackface and called himself "coonman?" If they put principle above politics Northam wouldve been forced from office and a black LT. governor would have replaced him.
The cities with the worst offenses are run by democrats in democrat states with democrat run law enforcement but BLM will still push to vote for more of the same in November. Even Shawn King pointed this out on twitter.
Single party rule in black cities has not improved black lives, but BLM will back those same politicians anyways.
Maybe they are satisfied with empty gestures and lip service over outcomes, but i am not.
-
they support organizations that undermine their argument. How can they support planned parenthood when that organization was founded on the racist eugenics of reducing black populations, and to this day disproportionally aborts blacks? Teachers unions that are predominantly white and oppose school choice and charter schools? Is it about fixing things or political power and money?
-
they link themselves to marxism, an ideology that is antithetical to freedom and has a horrible history of treating minorities poorly. See Che Guevara's opinions on blacks.
-
they push horrible, unrealistic policies as solutions over more realistic and feasible alternatives. Defunding and dismantling police while asking to improve police training and licensing is counterintuitive. Asking to demilitarize police and end no-knock warrants would be better and actually get broad support across ideologies.
-
they would rather be angry than make a difference, and that anger (however justified) leads to making things worse for the black community. Was Dorn's senseless death not tragic? Was it justified because a white cop abused and killed floyd? Last i checked, 20 black men and women are dead from the rioting and rage. Black businesses are destroyed, black jobs are gone, and black communities are harmed by the rage and anger. BLM could have been a leader in channeling that rage to constructive ends, but did not do so. It is an opportunity missed.
-
calling anyone who disagrees with you a racist is a terrible way to behave or debate. It is offensive and dishonest. You will never find common ground and you only entrench the divide.
BLM is just a bunch of paid shills that show up around election time.
They literally vanished from the MSM sometime after making Christmas rants back in 2016.
They've already achieved like 1/3rd their claimed goals in the places where most of the rioting occurs, which is why they were released back to the streets to keep doing it due to bail reforms. At this point all they're achieving is the undoing of their Liberal-Marxist agenda by proving just how ineffective their own desired goals have always been. Proving definitively that they have no respect for anything but the jack boots of authoritarianism, which is why they're oh so desperate to wear them and then selectively enforce the rules to their own advantage - exactly like they did during 8 years of Obama.
